Used 2022 Nissan Maxima for Sale nearFort Worth, TX

How much does the 2022 Nissan Maxima cost?

Prices have softened 6.47% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

With 560 listings available, you have a solid amount of inventory to compare across price and condition.

If you find a listing below $22,597.56, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2022 Nissan Maxima a good car?

The 2022 Nissan Maxima stands out as a sleek, front-wheel-drive sedan with a more athletic personality than its size suggests. It uses a 3.5-liter V6 with 300 horsepower and 261 pound-feet of torque, and it comes with an 8-inch color display with navigation across the range.

For you, that means the Maxima makes the most sense if you want a well-equipped sedan with strong standard safety content and distinctive styling rather than maximum cabin space. The trade-off is that the CVT softens the driving feel, so it is more relaxed than truly sporty.

With 31.8% of listings priced as good or great deals, the market gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2022 Nissan Maxima reliable?

Reliability data is scarce, but the available information points to an average record. The 2022 Nissan Maxima also has a long safety track record, with IIHS “Top Safety Pick” or “Top Safety Pick+” recognition every year it was on sale.

For used buyers, that means long-term ownership risk looks manageable, but you should still prioritize condition and maintenance history before you commit.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Nissan Maxima?

At 73.9% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should run a vehicle history report on any promising car and confirm whether prior damage was cosmetic or structural. Put a pre-purchase inspection ahead of everything else, especially if the listing price looks unusually attractive. Focus your evaluation on body condition, panel alignment, tire wear, and signs of inconsistent repairs.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Nissan Maxima?

This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully without feeling rushed.

What is the 2022 Nissan Maxima's resale value?

The current average of $23,194 sits slightly below last year's $24,798.

That softer pricing can help you buy more confidently now, but it also suggests future resale may stay under pressure if the market remains loose. If you plan to sell later, a well-kept example with clean history and strong documentation should hold up better than one with prior damage or visible wear. For you, the best resale strategy is to buy the cleanest car you can find at a fair entry price.

Should I buy a 2022 Nissan Maxima or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 31.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 73.9% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.47% compared with last year.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $19,737, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $23,194 average.
• It offers a long-running, carryover formula with a polished cabin and strong comfort.

The bottom line: If you want the newer buy with a broader market and a still-reasonable price, the 2022 is the better default choice. If your priority is saving money upfront, the 2021 is the smarter path, especially if you find one in excellent condition with a clean history.
